I purchased an elecric lawn mower last year after a bit of online research. There are several things you will want to consider:
Cordless or with a cord: The cordless is less entangled but may be $100 more costly and may be a bit heavier. I went with the cord which I already had. If you don't you will need to purchase a good one (12 guage)to reach to the ends of your yard. The cord may cost $100.00
How wide do you need? A wider model 20" will be heavier than a more narrow model (18") but you may have to make fewer passes.
A bag? If you are going to get a bag for it then the best configuration is for it to be rear bagging. My lawnmower came with a mulching plug, a bag and can be configured for side discharge.
If you don't get a bag you might want to consider a mulching mower. It chops the grass up and leaves it on the lawn. I use mine to chop up leaves in the fall as well.

I want a pull start, rear propelled and gas mower that doesn't cost too much. Can any of you suggest any brands that you've have had good luck with??? If anyone know of any great on-line deals for mowers, I would like to know that too....

I have a Lawn Boy that's 10 years old, and still starts on the 2nd. pull. I don't know how much they cost today, but it was $259 new. Why buy on-line and pay shipping? Watch your local stores for sales, or the classified for used.
